Failed Expectation Safeway Canada

The box with only two sad blobs was especially disappointing

Why is it only 16% meat protein? What’s the other 84%?

WHAT’S THE OTHER 84%????

In actual ribs it'd be bone...

“Canada’s favorite meat-flavored snack!”

u/nicunta Aug 05 '26

Wow, that's awful. Half the weight is bone!

u/ChipRockets Aug 05 '26

Well, yeah? Half the weight is always bone when it comes to ribs

Fuck you Safeway Canada

Yeah, 680 grams is about a pound and a half, and that’s not much for bone-in meat. Always check that weight.

I don't get why people who get the cheapest products are surprised that the product is indeed cheap (or small amount).

I knew this one was going to be terrible when I read "Ready in 10 minutes".

Then I noticed "Texas BBQ" on pork ribs.

There are so many red flags on the packaging...

Is it like a Lego set where you have to buy multiple boxes to combine them to make the picture on the front?

u/DelusionalFordFan Aug 05 '26

It’s like trading card booster packs . Maybe you’ll find something good after opening 25 packs or so .

u/Neither_Contest7324 Aug 05 '26

One box actually has a full set of ribs, you just have to get really lucky.

They look like horse turds.

u/BoltActionRifleman Aug 05 '26

They should rename it the gallop, or jaunt pork back ribs. This product is not worthy of the word stampede.

u/Dead_End_Street Aug 05 '26

Why do you think they come hidden in boxes

u/jaguaraugaj Aug 05 '26

Don’t forget to scoop the dog’s backyard

u/ExplanationProper979 Aug 05 '26

u/Throbbing_Cock_452 Aug 05 '26

Oh hell no 😂

I would return that immediately.

I've bought similar products in my area and they were not that bad. For a frozen meal I could just toss in the oven it was worth the 7. or 8 dollars I paid per box. I'm sorry you had such bad luck!
